Did They Deserve It?

After a good, long run, we have decided to close our forums in an effort to refocus attention to other sections of the site.

So we encourage you all to bring your ravenous love for discussion to Chuck's official Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Instagram. And, as always, you can still post comments on all News updates. Thank you for your loyalty and passion over the years. These changes will happen June 1.

I think it deserved some of the more technical/artistic awards it won.

But Best Picture and Best Director? Nah.

Wasn't it just the third one that they gave the best picture and director to? I think that was a pretty good call. It definitely deserved some kind of attention for him making that massive of a movie, even if they did break it down to three of them, that's still a hell of an achievement.
It didn't deserve to get anything for just the first two parts, but once it was all out there and completed, i thought it was a nice touch.
And I'm not really even much of a fan.

I like having him around. You can't have everyone just agreeing with everyone all the time. Needs some conflict in there. Plus, some of his ideas are so goofy that it's easy to debunk 'em!

See thats the problem with everyones point of view, they're always so grounded and realistic. Why can't the most absurd idea be the most accurate? Think for it long enough, like thing so hard it hurts and you start question your existence and reality, you realize that one idea is as absurd as another. The simple truth of the matter is that you can't truly debunk anything since you only experience everything through your own eyes. What makes you think that the world isn't playing a giant cosmic prank on you? or maybe I really I'm just as crazy as the doctor say? But then again they can't talk now that they have no tongues mawhahahaha. Wow its really difficult to come across crazily menacing on the internet. Whatever.

OMG, ever wondered if people see colours differently from other people? Like if your red is actually my blue? That's crazy!

OMFG, have you ever wondered if, when you fall asleep, the world just stops existing until you wake up? That's crazy!

OMFGROFLMAO, have you ever wondered if "knowledge" is actually impossible because we can't KNOW that we know something? Holy crap, that's crazy!

The academy gets it right sometimes (recent examples being the 80th and 81st Academy Awards) and sometimes they don't make any fucking sense (Apparently Chicago is a greater film than Punch Drunk Love, The Two Towers, Adaptation, Gangs of New York and The Pianist).

Other times they don't have anything to work with (2005 was one of the slowest years for movies ever).

More importantly, what if humans are just germs and the planets and stars are cells in a much larger organism?!

Yeah, I still don't understand Chicago winning Best Picture...

I think I remember people talking about Chicago being the sign that musicals were on their way back. Oooookay.
